Hey guys, a lot of you are always asking me questions about the Foundation Year Scheme at Oxford. So I thought it would be a good idea to interview some of the current foundation year students and David (who was a foundation year student last year).
I thought it would be nice for you to gain a wider understanding into what it is and to demystify some of the misconceptions about it.
The foundation year is piloted at Lady Margaret Hall and applications are now open!
If you are thinking of applying here is the link and information about it.

The university is made up of a variety of institutions, including 38 constituent colleges and a full range of academic departments which are organised into four divisions. All the colleges are self-governing institutions as part of the university, each controlling its own membership and with its own internal structure and activities. Being a city university, it does not have a main campus; instead, all the buildings and facilities are scattered throughout the city centre. Most undergraduate teaching at Oxford is organised around weekly tutorials at the self-governing colleges and halls, supported by classes, lectures and laboratory work provided by university faculties and departments.

Hall

In architecture, a hall is a relatively large space enclosed by a roof and walls. In the Iron Age, a mead hall was such a simple building and was the residence of a lord and his retainers. Later, rooms were partitioned from it, and the space next to the front door became the entrance hall. Today, the (entrance) hall of a house is the space next to the front door or vestibule leading to the rooms directly and/or indirectly. Where the hall inside the front door of a house is elongated, it may be called a passage, corridor (from Spanish corredor used in El Escorial and 100 years later in Castle Howard) or hallway.

Other meanings

In later medieval Europe, the main room of a castle or manor house was the great hall. In a medieval building, the hall was where the fire was kept. With time, its functions as dormitory, kitchen, parlour and so on were divided off to separate rooms or, in the case of the kitchen, a separate building.

Me @ Karaoke Night @ Lady Margaret Hall

This summer I spent almost a month in England attending a study abroad program at Oxford University. We had a karaoke night and this is one of the songs that I sung. 1/3 of the way through the song my mike cut out and threw me off tune a bit. By the end of the song though I was back into it. Enjoy!

Li Ang：50 Years of Writing Taiwan
作家李昂：台灣文學五十年
05 March 2018 Monday 5-6:30 p.m. Lecture Theatre, ChinaCentre, St Hugh’s College, Oxford
Supported by: OxfordChinese Studies Society, Oxford China Forum, InternationalGender Studies Centre at Lady Margaret Hall Oxford, Oxford UniversityTaiwaneseStudent Society
Free for all, please register at Eventbrite
Anyone who knows anything about Taiwanese literary history would know the name Li Ang. Starting her career in the late 1960s when Taiwan was still under Martial Law, she constantly experimented with radical ways of thinking gender and sexuality and has since become the most translated author from Taiwan.
It is no understatement to say that she is one of the most prominent feminist writers in the Sinophone world, as her works, often critical of patriarchal conventions and ideologies in Chinese societies, have won numerous literary awards in Taiwan. Many of her fiction, including The Butcher’s Wife 殺夫, Dark Night 暗夜, LostGarden 迷園, and VisibleGhosts 看得見的鬼, have been translated into many languages and adapted into films, TV dramas and musicals in Taiwan, Austria, France and Germany. In 2004, Li Ang was awarded the “Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres” by the French Minister of Culture and Communication in recognition of her outstanding contribution to world literature. In 2017, Li Ang’s new book The Beautiful Man Asleep 睡美男 was published, and its focus on an older woman’s sexual psychology in her encounters with young people has again challenged conventional social attitudes towards less normative human relationships.
In this public event, Li Ang will share with us her experiences in the Taiwanese literary world in the last 50 years as well as her reflections on the development of Taiwanese and Sinophone literatures today. This event will be of interest to those of you who work on Chinese literature, Taiwan, Sinophone Studies, gender and sexuality, and media and film studies. Li Ang will first give a 15 minutes speech, followed by a conversation with Flair Donglai SHI (DPhil in English) to further contextualise her thoughts, and plenty of time will be given to audience Q & A and discussions.

My family warned @EU_Commission that with my mother #DaphneCaruanaGalizia's assassination Malta had set a new standard of permissible behaviour within the EU and that others would soon die if decisive action isn't taken. #JanKuciak could have been saved. Tweet of Andrew Caruana Galizia, journalist and son of Daphne Caruana Galizia, 26 February 2018. The recent murders of two European investigative journalists have shaken international public opinion. Daphne Caruana Galicia, one of the best known Maltese investigative journalists, was killed on 16 October 2017 by a car bomb. She was the first journalist to reveal the involvement of Maltese government politicians in the Panama Papers, and had also unveiled the involvement of the Maltese Prime Minister's wife in the Panamanian offshore company Egrant Inc, focusing the attention on the money received from the company and the subsequent agreements of the Maltese government with that of Azerbaijan in the energy field. A mafia-style execution killed Ján Kuciak on 22 February 2018, together with his girlfriend. Kuciak, a Slovakian journalist, had investigated tax evasion cases that also involved members of the ruling party, and already in October 2017 had reported intimidating phone calls. He had been working on an important investigation into the collusion between politicians and the 'Ndrangheta, and on the infiltration of organized crime into the economy of the country. On 28 February the Slovakian website Aktuality.sk published the last article by Kuciak, after which the Secretary of the National Security Council, the assistant of Prime MinisterRobert Fico and the Minister of Culture all resigned. At the end of March 2018, the Prime Minister himself, under pressure from the political crisis following the assassination of Kuciak, resigned. The deaths of Daphne Caruana Galicia and Ján Kuciak demonstrate with shocking immediacy the risk for journalists who investigate corruption and the links between organised crime and governments. The deaths remind us that the safety of journalists is an issue that should never be downplayed, and that there are no safe countries.

NEW OXFORD FOUNDATION YEAR| STUDENTS Q&A | LMH | MISSVARZ

APPLICATIONS ARE NOW OPEN!!!! are you academically able? are you willing to learn? are you ready for a challenge? ever thought of Oxford but didn't know how????? APPLY!!!
Hey guys, a lot of you are always asking me questions about the Foundation Year Scheme at Oxford. So I thought it would be a good idea to interview some of the current foundation year students and David (who was a foundation year student last year).
I thought it would be nice for you to gain a wider understanding into what it is and to demystify some of the misconceptions about it.
The foundation year is piloted at Lady Margaret Hall and applications are now open!
If you are thinking of applying here is the link and information about it.
If you have any more questions please don't be afraid to get in touch with me or better yet, comment down below

Li Ang 李昂 in Oxford: 50 Years of Writing Taiwan

Li Ang：50 Years of Writing Taiwan
作家李昂：台灣文學五十年
05 March 2018 Monday 5-6:30 p.m. Lecture Theatre, ChinaCentre, St Hugh’s College, Oxford
Supported by: OxfordChinese Studies Society, Oxford China Forum, InternationalGender Studies Centre at Lady Margaret Hall Oxford, Oxford UniversityTaiwaneseStudent Society
Free for all, please register at Eventbrite
Anyone who knows anything about Taiwanese literary history would know the name Li Ang. Starting her career in the late 1960s when Taiwan was still under Martial Law, she constantly experimented with radical ways of thinking gender and sexuality and has since become the most translated author from Taiwan.
It is no understatement to say that she is one of the most prominent feminist writers in the Sinophone world, as her works, often critical of patriarchal conventions and ideologies in Chinese societies, have won numerous literary awards in Taiwan. Many of her fiction, including The Butcher’s Wife 殺夫, Dark Night 暗夜, LostGarden 迷園, and VisibleGhosts 看得見的鬼, have been translated into many languages and adapted into films, TV dramas and musicals in Taiwan, Austria, France and Germany. In 2004, Li Ang was awarded the “Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres” by the French Minister of Culture and Communication in recognition of her outstanding contribution to world literature. In 2017, Li Ang’s new book The Beautiful Man Asleep 睡美男 was published, and its focus on an older woman’s sexual psychology in her encounters with young people has again challenged conventional social attitudes towards less normative human relationships.
In this public event, Li Ang will share with us her experiences in the Taiwanese literary world in the last 50 years as well as her reflections on the development of Taiwanese and Sinophone literatures today. This event will be of interest to those of you who work on Chinese literature, Taiwan, Sinophone Studies, gender and sexuality, and media and film studies. Li Ang will first give a 15 minutes speech, followed by a conversation with Flair Donglai SHI (DPhil in English) to further contextualise her thoughts, and plenty of time will be given to audience Q & A and discussions.

Lady Margaret

Sweet William rose one morning brightAnd dressed himself in blue"Come tell to me the long lost loveBetween Lady Margaret and you""I know no harm of Lady Margaret," said he"And I hope she knows none of meBut tomorrow morning before eight o'clockLady Margaret my bride shall be"As Lady Margaret was in her chamber highA-combing up her hairShe spied sweet William and his brideAs they to the church drew nearShe threw down her ivory combAnd tossed back her hairAnd from the room a fair lady cameThat was seen in there no moreThe day being gone and the night being comeWhen most men were asleepSweet William spied Lady Margaret's ghostA-standing at his bed feet"How do you like your bed?" she said"And how do you like your sheet?And how do you like the fair ladyThat lies in your arms asleep?""Very well do I like my bed," said he"Very well do I like my sheetBut better do I like the fair ladyThat is standing at my bed feet"The night being gone and the day being comeWhen most men were awakeSweet William said he was troubled in his headFrom a dream he had last nightHe called his weary waiting maidsBy one, by two, by threeAnd last of all, with his bride's consentLady Margaret he went to seeHe went unto the parlor doorHe knocked until he made things ringBut none was so ready as her own dear brotherTo arise and let him in"Is Lady Margaret in the parlor?" said he"Or is she in the hallOr is she in her chamber highAmong the gay ladies all?""Lady Margaret is not in the parlor," said he"She is neither in the hallShe is in her coffinAnd a-lying by the wall""Tear down, tear down, those milk white sheetsThey are made of silk so fineThat I may kiss Lady Margaret's cheekFor ofttimes she has kissed mine"The first that he kissed was her rosy cheekThe next was her dimpled chinThe last of all was her clay-cold lipsThat pierced his heart within"Tear down, tear down those milk white sheetsThey are made of silk so fineToday they hang around Lady Margaret's corpseAnd tomorrow they will hang around mine"Lady Margaret died of pure, pure loveSweet William died of sorrowThey are buried in one burying groundBoth side and side togetherOut of her grave grew a red roseAnd out of his a briarThey grew in a twining true lover's knot
